Mock Marriages are not Funny.

xISS NIEAANN AND NIX. DUNE AXE NOW kEPkNTe
ING THEIR RECENT SENTIMENTAL FOLLY.
The New York Sun says: Miss Mamie Niemann,
OF 213 ogden avenue, Jersey City, and John Dunno.
. young photographer OF Sherman avenue, were
members Of the Hillsdale Boat Club excursion
party up the Hudson on June 20, and when Mr..
Dunne was introduced TO Miss Niemann some ole
proposed, for fun, that they be married. Miss
Neimann assented, laughingly, and Alderman
John Prtgge, OF Jersey City, volunteered TO per-
form the mock ceremony. Miss Niemann and Mr..
Dunno clasped hands on the deck or the barge,
and the alderman muttered some Jargon, Joculary
calling them "man and Wife" Miss Niemann
passed as Mrs. Dunno among the merry-makers
for the rest OF the day, and no one regarded the
performance seriously.
The joke, however, has taken a serious turn,
much to the distress OF all the parties TO It, The
Rev. Father Smyth, OF st. Pauls Catholic church,
OF which Dunno Is an attendant, says that he re-
CARDS the marriage as legal, and could not now
marry Dunno TO any one else. In his sermon at
mass on Sunday last he denounced the conduct OF
any Catholic who would enter into a mixed mar
rage (for Miss Niemann is a member OF the North
Hudson Baptist church). and said that he could
not administer the sacraments Of the church 10
any Catholic who persisted in keeping company
with Protestant.
